Are you tired of always being late? Are you pissed off because he’s been late on your dates? Does she take time for granted? Well guys, I bet you’re on the right track. It’s time to know how to manage your time well.

I have been a victim of the so called time-insensitive person, and honestly, it really makes me upset. Being late on school, work, and even on dates isn’t a good habit.

So how important is time?

Time is a unique and valuable resource that cannot be restored or saved for later use. Time is needed in order to do your work, accomplish your goals, spend time with your loved ones, and enjoy everything that life has to offer. It is a great importance to your personal life and success in a career.

So for each one of you who feels like challenged to be punctual, or for those who have loved ones who are constantly showing up late, I’ll give you some strategies you can use to boot out the lateness habit and start showing up on time. And wait! You could also let your loved ones read this too.

Planning.

This entails writing down things that needs to be done. A to-do list is a helpful tool to control your tasks and keep yourself systematized. Plan your day, your week or your vacation with someone special. And when you plan, put these into actions in order to achieve success in your planned activity.

Prioritize.

This will help you focus on the things that really matter to you. Categorized your tasks in order to know which should be done first and which that could wait for some time.

Learn to say NO.

Saying “Sorry, I’m not available right now maybe some other time.” wouldn’t hurt too much than letting a low priority request throw off your entire plan. Learn to say no to distracters in order to free up time to spend on things that are more important.

Think before you act.

Before you would regret doing something; stop, take a deep breathe and think. Thinking includes weighing things and organizing your thoughts. This will prevent you from tiring yourself in doing things that are unnecessary.

Set a goal.

Putting in mind a goal each time you wake up until you go to sleep is a good way to motivate yourself. Set a goal to be on time in every task you do; and before you know it, you won’t be feeling bad about yourself being late. Maybe one day, you might even astonish your loved ones being earlier than expected.

The important point is that managing time is not necessarily about getting lots of stuff done, what’s important is that you make sure that you’re working on the right things at the right time under the right circumstance.
